Neuro Occupational Therapy: Key Steps to Returning to Work

When I saw the pain team in February, I was referred to the Neuro Occupational therapy team. They were to review my readiness to start undertaking some occasional work. I met with Sarah a couple of weeks ago, and went through a whole load of things. She obviously wanted to get up to speed with what has been happening to me. We then got to talking about my intentions regarding returning to some sort of part-time work. Overall she felt I was fairly well sorted. She wanted to have a follow-up at home though to see what my set-up was like. She came today and was generally happy with how I had things – desk, chair etc. There are a couple of changes with regards to location of my monitor and laptop screen. I knew about these changes. I explained it is a temporary setup. We are getting other things sorted in the room.

I explained that I’d not had a physiotherapy following last years surgery, and she felt that could be helpful. She is going to make a referral for me.
